When brewing, 7g or 8g is a relatively reasonable choice, depending on the capacity of the gaiwan we use, choose 7g or 8g, you can get a relatively delicious tea soup taste.

The main reason is that the weight of tea leaves, the tea-to-water ratio is generally maintained between 1:22, which is both concentrated and not easy to be too strong.

Why 100 Brews?

Many tea lovers who drink oolong tea know that it is generally brewed with 100 degrees of water, why is this?

The angle of water injection refers to the injection of water along a certain point of the gaiwan or purple clay pot, rather than directly hitting the tea leaves with water, which can easily lead to the accelerated dissolution of bitterness. Therefore, during the brewing process of oolong tea, special emphasis is placed on the angle of water injection.
